You’ve probably heard it before or read about it on other blogs. Everyone is talking about it , everyone thinks that social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter are the future of online search and that Internet giant Google will become a thing of the past when it comes to search.

Search was always a word which came a long side Google. Everyone wanted to be listed on Google be the number one search result. Of course that is still an issue. But I’ve noticed lately that a lot of my traffic is now coming from Facebook and Twitter as appose to Google. With Facebook connect coming into its own its allowing Internet users to share what they are reading and news updates with their friends and groups. This is beginning to spread across the Internet.

As we move from a world of static search to real time search we are going to start seeing many changes. “What are YOU doing now” “What is on YOUR mind” these are all the questions hundreds of million of Internet users are answering on a daily basis. This is because social search which has been funded for years is beginning to take over. It is no wonder that Google like to keep a good relationship with Facebook and Twitter.

Facebook can rival Google because they have a huge member base in the excess of 300 million and hundreds new members signing up daily. Facebook has seen of rival myspace and is now taking the Internet by storm. But why is it I say that Facebook and Twittter will soon be the primary ways of searching? It’s simple lets say I wanted to know a good hotel in Florida , if I were to search Google I would be confronted with maybe given 30 – 40 million results. I’d get bored looking through these, why not simply go to facebook and put a status update and more than likely one of my friends have been too Florida before and can recommend something foe me. It’s all part of this new social search like searching for news results on Twitter or looking at Twitter trends and getting news as it happens. Google and Bing may have got a deal with Twitter to show live results in their search results but it wont be long until users homepages are set too Facebook and Twitter as the first places they go to find out the latest news.
